WATCH: Robert Vadra deactivates his Facebook account

On Sunday, Vadra was accused by Arvind Kejriwal's close aide Kumar Vishwason of making a controversial Facebook update.Vadra reportedly posted,"Mango people in banana republic." on his page.

Vadra closed his account saying that many people on his friend list do not understand humour.

He further added that what ever he posts, gets turned into news and fodder for TV debates. He said that although he has decided to close his Facebook account, he will open a new one to which he will add only sensible people as friends.

On Friday Kejriwal and Prashant Bhushan alleged that Vadra had bought properties worth over Rs.300 crore between 2007 and 2010 with an interest-free unsecured loan of Rs.65 crore provided by DLF.

They claimed that the properties were given at undervalued rates in exchange of favours allegedly received from Congress state governments in Haryana, Rajasthan and Delhi.

Incidentally, Vadra had chosen Facebook as his medium of choice to break his silence on the controversial allegations.

On Saturday, he had posted,"Thanks for the concern, I can handle all the negativity. I have lost people I loved. What can be worse than that."

He clarified more elaborately in a TV interview later. Vadra said,"The allegations levelled against me by Shri Kejriwal and Shri Bhushan are utterly false, entirely baseless and defamatory.

My business transactions are fully reflected in financial statements filed before appropriate government authorities in compliance with the law.".

Perhaps the negativity became too much too handle for Mr Priyanka Gandhi this time.
